It's time to answer the hard questions and be open to criticism, and debate without demeaning or dehumanizing one other.

I will be doing just that on my new podcast – inviting people on who I deeply disagree with to talk about the most pressing issues of the... more

    California is a dumpster fire and you are doing this podcast to run for president? Focus on California instead but I guess ruining California is not enough for you.

  • Gavin “Zionist” Newsom, who is voting for you?

    You lick the boots of Israel and Isis and you want to run as a Dem?

    Do you think twitter gotcha moments outweigh preening a genocide didn’t occur?

    I want you to run just so you can see how much people under 40 absolute despise phonies like you.

    It was over the moment you bowed down to Ben Shapiro. That moment was when it ended. I would chew glass before voting for you.

  • My Brother, My President

    Fantastic podcast, this episode is truly my favorite conversation and cements my instinct that you’re going to be a great president for our country. I’m proud to call myself a daughter of California, your sister in Sacramento.

    In the sample I heard of your book, I loved your mention about growing up along I-80, as a kid, my mom and I would stop at the Nut Tree on our way to THE city to fly kites and go to Ghirardelli Square on the weekend to get out of the valley heat. You’ve taken such good ... more
